How to get the screen width in React Native?

To get the screen width in React Native, we can use the Dimension object.

For instance, we write:

import * as React from 'react';
import { View, Text, Dimensions } from 'react-native';

import { Card } from 'react-native-paper';

const App = () => {
  const dims = {
    width: Dimensions.get('window').width,
    height: Dimensions.get('window').height,
  };

  return (
    <View>
      <Text>{JSON.stringify(dims)}</Text>
    </View>
  );
};
export default App;

We call Dimensions.get with 'window' to get the screen dimensions in an object.

Then we can use the width and height properties to get the width and height of the screen.
